1035- Reach 557 (C-5M # 86-0015) working ZNY Kennedy (125.325) advising they are hearing strong ELT on guard freq.

1050- Exec 1 Fox (C-32 # 98-0002) off Wilmington heading north. Boy, the Dems sure like riding around on the taxpayers dollar.

1105- Looks like the new tanker, Igor 17, has set up a little further south than the previous tanker. Wonder if POTUS is heading to his beach house today?

Could it be possible flight back to DC with Manchin and Schumer who were in Delaware for breakfast with POTUS at residernce. Currently lunch lid until 3pm

Wish T-38's would make massive local trip like this around here.. They just stay stuck down at Langley/Pax River with occasional single T+G at Dover

MilAirTips on Twitter: "Alerts from @MilAirMSP tipped off enthusiasts of what ended up being 16 aircraft arriving from @LaughlinAFB - 14 T-38C and two T-1A, most of which flew SDF-MSN-MSP today. https://t.co/VfjKcpiafy" / Twitter

You will need to unzip the file. WinZip or the free 7-Zip will work fine
